The Cliff Anonymous (An Author's Mean Confession)

Just Sayin

I've read a lot of books, fictions, and stories. I can possibly even predict how a story plot will go just by reading the first few chapters. I can also predict twists at times.

I dont really know why a fic with the most predictable plot, or if not, a frankenstein of different scenes from the different popular stories gets more votes? I dont know who to hate.....The author of that story who probably thinks that she wont be found out for recycling different scenes from the stories she has read, and then she gets comments like 'this is the most original plot Ive ever seen"? or the ignorant reader who doesnt know a crap about pre existing stories and gives comments like the one Ive mentioned. I also want to point out that numbers less than a hundred should be written in its proper word spelling, and not the actual number itself.

This reminds me why I hate this site sometimes. It's full of authors who take advantage of other works, and it's full of stupid readers.

I can forgive unrealistic themes and settings when it comes to anything fantasy-related, but unrealistic characters? How can readers vote that kind of story?

Chapter 8: hey! i know it's a bit late since i've already begun writing it, but i was wondering if i could use this story (but specifically this chapter) as inspiration for a short poem i'm writing? it would mean a lot to me, and i won't post it until i get your permission.
thank you in advance!

Chapter 18: thank you for writing this, do you have any medicine to heal the hurt everytime reader unsubscribe? I'm new writer, I feel like trash sometimes, the only things that keep me writing is the new subscribers and readers comments and upvote, how i wish that i don't know who unsubscribe, but sometimes i know.....I guess One man's trash is another man's treasure :(

Chapter 6: I partially agree with this. Yes, advertising gets you some time at the spotlight and more people will have a chance to see and read your story and along with that - subscribe...

But advertising doesn't automatically mean 1000+ subscribers and a gold star.

Chapter 13: oh my god, I'm starting to like this 'rant fanfic/blog' thingy. I practically ing some of authors and readers shamelessly bcus of the same reasons.

I actually think fanfic also supposed to "it's not about being read. It's about being written" thingy. I mean I write stories in my blog without promoting it, only some of my friends who really want to read it. There's no comments or anything, no pressure at all. Because my aim to write is not for anyone, is just myself. Sometimes it's just phathetic for some of authors who go to far with their storyline, changing OC characters or storyline for entertaining some of naggy readers.

Chapter 9: oh my god this reminds me of authors who try so hard not to make their character a mary sue it goes full circle and becomes a mary sue, but it's actually worse because the oc's so "depressed" and "misunderstood" and fights a lot but only to protect her little sister like jesus i'd just rather have a regular mary sue

Chapter 10: Ok. Hahaha. I was determined to read all rants before commenting, but man Im itching to voice out this rant too. There's this author who isnt featured but had hosted a contest in which she garnered huge subscription base. And man, she really thought she's sooo popular that she posted a name for her "fan" base. And I was like, witch please. You have many subs coz theyre interested in the contest. Oof! It's good to ventilate. haha.
